How outpatient surgery is opening the door for robot makers – Modern Healthcare

How to choose a robot vacuum? Robot vacuums involve a lot of innovative technology and special features, which means there’s plenty to consider before buying. These are the key factors to consider. Navigation and mapping type: Most robot vacuums use LiDAR (light detection and ranging), dToF (direct time of flight) or AI cameras to map…

The explosive growth of electric vehicles has intensified the search for ways to make electric motors more energy efficient. One major challenge is iron loss, also called magnetic hysteresis loss, which occurs when magnetic fields inside the motor repeatedly reverse direction. This process wastes energy as heat within the motor core, which is made from…

Engineered for both wet and dry floor cleaning, the Dyson Spot+Scrub Ai is the brand’s first robotic vacuum that is uniquely equipped to detect, react, check and clean, while identifying and avoiding obstacles with precision.  Images courtesy of Dyson. Together with this robot vacuum cleaner, you can now take the guesswork out of cleaning using…

Silicon chips have been the foundation of modern computing for decades. Now, researchers are giving them an entirely new role in biotechnology. In addition to processing information, these chips are increasingly being used to study living systems by recording activity from neurons, reading DNA, and now even creating DNA. In a new study published in…

Before a healthcare robot can be useful in the real world, it has to learn how the physical world pushes back. Anatomy varies. Instruments bend, press, slip and interact with tissue. Imaging can be noisy or incomplete. And the rare, edge scenarios developers most need to understand don’t appear on schedule. That creates one of…

With AI, robots become smart, easily adaptable, and accessible, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says Nvidia said on Thursday it was partnering with Japanese companies including Fanuc and Yaskawa Electric to advance ​the development of robotics and AI. “With AI, robots will become smart, easily ‌adaptable and accessible,” Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said at a media…
